Tattoo Aftercare Instructions

Want some ink that will set you apart from the crowd? We have many options for aftercare needs. We have "Tattoo Goo" aftercare

Tattoo Goo Balm: "This durable, easy-to-carry tin has some big-time natural ingredients that aid in healing and protection. Made with premium olive oil, this balm is formulated to mimic the natural oils that occur in your skin, so it goes on smooth and absorbs well — because moisturized skin means more vibrant ink."

Tattoo Goo Lotion:

This light lotion goes on evenly and absorbs quickly, leaving your skin feeling refreshed, never greasy. The itch-relief ingredient panthenol makes this lotion your best friend during the scabbing part of the healing process. It’s also a go to for healed tattoos to keep skin moisturized and colors vibrant.

Tattoo Goo® Lotion contains panthenol (“lab speak” for vitamin B5), which is known to promote healing and reduce skin irritation — particularly the itching that comes with a new tattoo (you’re welcome). The rich olive oil formula penetrates skin with deep moisture to keep tattoos vibrant. And P.S. — it’s not just for tattoos. Apply to any skin that is dry, itchy or irritated!
